- You have got to be kidding me.
The Radicals are running around manufacturing new scienctific notions based on the Koran.
Someone even built a watch to help this particular idea along:

- Well, well, well - more demands from these ragheaded upstarts. Never mind world time, get civilized for a start and stop trying to emulate Klingons! I hate to come back to the subject of Islam again but this piece of news forced my hand.

Muslim Call To Adopt Mecca Time
"Muslim scientists and clerics have called for the adoption of Mecca time to replace GMT, arguing that the Saudi city is the true centre of the Earth.
Mecca is the direction all Muslims face when they perform their daily prayers.
The call was issued at a conference held in the Gulf state of Qatar under the title: Mecca, the Centre of the Earth, Theory and Practice.
One geologist argued that unlike other longitudes, Mecca's was in perfect alignment to magnetic north."
Thanks BrightKnight. There's nothing like a hollow laugh in the morning.
Call away, Muslims. I'm deaf.

- Mecca watch"Muslim call to adopt Mecca timeMuslim scientists and clerics have called for the adoption of Mecca time to replace GMT, arguing that the Saudi city is the true centre of the Earth.Mecca is the direction all Muslims face when they perform their daily prayers.The call was issued at a conference held in the Gulf state of Qatar under the title: Mecca, the Centre of the Earth, Theory and Practice.One geologist argued that unlike other longitudes, Mecca's was in perfect alignment to magnetic north.He said the English had imposed GMT on the rest of the world by force when Britain was a big colonial power, and it was about time that changed.A prominent cleric, Sheikh Youssef al-Qaradawy, said modern science had at last provided evidence that Mecca was the true centre of the Earth; proof, he said, of the greatness of the Muslim "qibla" - the Arabic word for the direction Muslims turn to when they pray.The meeting also reviewed what has been described as a Mecca watch, the brainchild of a French Muslim. The watch is said to rotate anti-clockwise and is supposed to help Muslims determine the direction of Mecca from any point on Earth."
